Genetic analysis of Atlantic Puffins revealed the presence of four genetic clusters corresponding to geography and size. However, in the Western Atlantic High Arctic, a Puffin colony called Thule showed two distinct size phenotypes and three distinct genetic clusters. This suggests a potential northward shift of boreal Atlantic Puffins in response to a warming High Arctic climate.
Across its range, the Atlantic Puffin Fratercula arctica is divided into four separate genetic clusters that correspond with geography and/or size differences. However, in the Western Atlantic High Arctic, there is a Puffin colony (Thule) that comprises two discrete size phenotypes. Using whole genome sequencing data of six Thule individuals from these two phenotypes, we found that Thule consists of three distinct genetic clusters, with no signs of recent interbreeding. Our results suggest the beginnings of a potential northward shift of boreal Atlantic Puffins in the West Atlantic, consistent with responses to a warming High Arctic climate.
